Scope and content
WW would really like JCH to come and stay at the Lodge. The Senate have voted for a Syndicate for Theological Education and WW is a member: 'The foundation of our scheme, as I understand, is to be this; that the time of taking the usual Degrees, and the existing Examinations for Honours are not to be disturbed. I suppose that what we must establish is an examination for proficiency in theological studies at some period of the career after the Degree - something like the Classical Tripos'. WW would like JCH's advice on the necessary books for examination in this subject: 'Of course we want both history, interpretation of scripture and doctrine'.
